Protecting how your account information is available to the public is paramount. However, these sorts of interactions are quite undesirable. Dapp sites, for example, MetaMask, directs the Ethereum Provider item to the websites that you view.

This leads to your Ethereum internet address virtually being available to the general public against your wish. Blockchain operates on an open framework and this will, therefore, mean your web information can be accessed by any person who has control of your internet address.

Scammers can use this opportunity to carry out dubious transactions which can totally expose you to international malpractices. This can potentially harm your reputation.

Introducing the Privacy Mode

In the recent past, MetaMask has developed a system for protecting the privacy of internet users accessing their account information. The whole framework of Ethereum has been under review to make this possible.

MetaMask has announced the launch of the Privacy Mode option. This is a user inter-phase and any MetaMask client will have access to this option, in their account set up. It is situated at the bottom of the menu.

By activating the privacy option, internet sites will display a pop up requesting for your Ethereum details. Once a dapp requests to access your accounts, a MetaMask will display in front of your window. It, therefore, enables us to preserve a history of the websites. These websites have your approval for access to information.

In the near future, we will add special features that will allow clients to be able to un-check. They will have an option of deciding whether to continue staying on that particular website.

Privacy Mode is user-friendly and has brought in a whole new way in which dapps are founded. This information is really useful to the creators of dapp.

In the initial stages, the Privacy Mode will turn off when in an idle state. Soon, a new feature known as the “connect to” will be added.

However, this option might not work for dapps that have not fully complied with the regulations of EIP 1102. You might need to keep trying every now and then. The team works on the outline that EIP 1102 is necessary and Privacy Mode will leave a lasting experience to all users.
